Chapter 2877 - 2880: You’re the Ones Who Should Get Lost!

Lan Duo seems to be connected to the Southern Wilderness King’s Mansion.

Could there really be some kind of link between them?

Sigh!

Looks like a troublesome time is coming.

The Southern Wilderness problem should have been taken care of long ago, but it’s been dragged out till now.

"Brother Xiao Chen, are you in trouble?"

Huang Qiu’er asked.

"Tell the people of Qinghuang Sect to raise their guard for the next while.

Something might be about to happen in Central Plains City."

Xiao Chen reminded her, "But to avoid causing panic, don’t spread it on a large scale.

Just have everyone be more careful."

"Mm!"

Huang Qiu’er nodded.

Those ten-plus people tonight were clearly from the Southern Wilderness at a glance.

Huang Qiu’er wasn’t stupid; people from the Southern Wilderness haven’t entered the cities for many years.

Now they’ve actually come to Central Plains Prefecture, it really feels like something big is about to happen.

After that, Xiao Chen called Li Baiyi and asked him to organize a pest extermination campaign.

A disinfection and extermination across the entire city area.

No one had any idea what those Southern Wilderness people were here to do.

If the sorcery insects end up harming the region, ordinary people simply wouldn’t be able to withstand it.

At this moment, Hong Yi called and reported a situation.

The Pan Family, a fourth-class Royal Family, was moving in a strange way.

As if it was related to the Southern Wilderness.

"Oh?"

Xiao Chen frowned slightly and said, "Got it. I’ll personally make a trip to this Pan Family."

The next day, Xiao Chen went back home and first gave his wife a heads-up.

Then he went to visit Lan Duo.

Lan Duo was currently practicing in the courtyard.

She was a lot more at ease than before.

"Brother Xiao!"

Lan Duo saw Xiao Chen and happily ran over to him.

"I brought you a gift, I figure you’ll like it!"

Xiao Chen smiled and led Lan Duo into the room.

Then he took out a jar.

He opened the jar.

Inside was actually that Seven-Colored Centipede.

"Such a pretty little bug!"

A normal girl would probably be trembling all over from fright at the sight of this thing.

Or would have already run and hidden.

But when Lan Duo saw it, not only was she not afraid, she was even a little happy.

As she spoke, Lan Duo stretched out her hand.

The Seven-Colored Centipede not only didn’t bite her, it crawled up onto her finger.

"So cute, it doesn’t seem afraid of me at all!"

Lan Duo laughed.

"Not only not afraid, it quite likes you!"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen could basically be sure.

Lan Duo was definitely connected to the Southern Wilderness.

After all, this Seven-Colored Centipede is a sorcery insect.

And the king among centipedes!

A being similar to the Golden Silkworm.

Containing intense poison.

It’s absolutely not a normal centipede.

For it to be this docile in front of Lan Duo is strange in itself.

Just as he had guessed.

Lan Duo’s Myriad Sorcery Hand had already been successfully cultivated.

Any sorcery insect would feel close to her.

"Are you from the Southern Wilderness?"

Xiao Chen suddenly asked.

Lan Duo’s whole body trembled.

The Seven-Colored Centipede seemed to sense Lan Duo’s fear as well.

It lunged toward Xiao Chen.

"Stop!"

Lan Duo shouted.

The Seven-Colored Centipede obediently halted on Lan Duo’s hand.

"Forget it, if you don’t want to talk, I don’t want to force you either.

But you need to understand, right now all the major organizations of the Southern Wilderness have left to look for you.

You really need to be careful."

Xiao Chen didn’t push Lan Duo.

This kid definitely had some unspeakable difficulties.

With his eye for people, Lan Duo’s character was pretty good.

At the very least, she knows how to repay kindness.

Just that alone.

Makes her not bad!

"Take this bug and play with it.

But it’s intensely poisonous.

Be careful not to let it bite anyone.

As for raising sorcery insects, you should be more familiar with that than I am."

Xiao Chen smiled, turned, and left.

This Seven-Colored Centipede is a treasure; it can’t just be destroyed casually.

Outside, Xiao Chen gave Bai Qi and the others a few more instructions.

Things might be unsettled for a while.

They needed to be extra careful.

Couldn’t afford to be careless.

Just then, Jiang Meng called, saying they were going to the Jiang Family for lunch today.

Ever since the relationship between Guo Ling and Jiang Meng eased up, Jiang Meng had been going to the Jiang Family quite often.

To be honest, Xiao Chen actually liked seeing this.

She’s her grandmother, after all.

Having them act like enemies wasn’t good.

At noon, Xiao Chen went to the Jiang Family as agreed.

And found Jiang Lin, Jiang Yan, and Jiang Ting all there.

Xiao Chen frowned.

Of these three, aside from Jiang Ting, he didn’t like any of them.

"Cousin, look at this guy, showing up only now.

Hurry up and ask him what he was doing last night.

He didn’t come home the whole night.

He must’ve been out fooling around with Huang Qiu’er!"

Jiang Lin said smugly.

"If you dare spout nonsense and ruin my sister’s reputation again, see if I don’t cripple you?"

Xiao Chen said coldly.

"Hmph, if you’ve got the guts, don’t do it.

If you do it, why be afraid of people talking?"

Jiang Yan snorted coldly, "Cousin, just look at him—you can tell he’s no good. He’s always cozying up to different women, he’s basically human scum!"

"Enough!"

Jiang Meng slapped the table and shouted angrily, "I came here to eat, not to listen to you spouting nonsense.

Use your time to improve yourselves.

That’s better than anything.

He’s my husband; I know him better than anyone.

If you keep talking like this, don’t blame me for being rude!"

Jiang Lin sneered, "Cousin, how can you not get it? We’re your relatives, why would we harm you?

At the end of the day, he’s just an outsider.

A live-in son-in-law.

You trust him that much, and he’s out fooling around behind your back.

That’s even more unforgivable!"

Jiang Meng sneered, "Of course I trust him; at the very least, he’s never lied to me.

Whenever I’m in danger, he’s by my side.

What about you?

You hit someone with a car and had him help you fix it.

Had him spend money for you.

Trust you?

Only if my brain was full of water!

In your whole family, only Tingting acts like a human being."

Jiang Lin’s face turned very awkward; he had nothing to say.

Jiang Yan hurriedly said, "Cousin, at worst my brother is just playful and made a mistake by accident.

But Xiao Chen is different.

He’s taking advantage of your trust to mess around outside.

This guy eats your food, drinks your drink.

And still goes chasing other women.

He’s basically the fighter jet among scumbags!"

"Heh, I’d have to be stupid to believe you!"

Jiang Meng sneered, "If I remember right, you just got tricked into giving your body away, didn’t you?

Your taste is that lousy.

If I believed you, wouldn’t I be jumping into a pit.

Let me tell you, Xiao Chen and I are the ones who are family.

With you lot, we’re not!

The matters in our home don’t need you outsiders worrying about them!"

"Heh!

You two little bitches trying to sow discord, get lost!

I don’t want to see you!"

Xiao Chen sneered.

"Why should we? This is my grandma’s house!"

Jiang Yan said.

"Then go ask Guo Ling whether she wants me to leave, or she wants you to leave?"

Xiao Chen said.

Right then, Guo Ling walked over.

Jiang Yan and Jiang Lin rushed up to complain: "Grandma, make this live-in son-in-law get out, he’s totally not good enough for Jiang Meng!"

"You two get out!"

Guo Ling said coldly.

What a joke, Xiao Chen not good enough for Jiang Meng?

There isn’t a daughter in this world good enough for Xiao Chen!

Jiang Meng and Xiao Chen being together.

Is pure true love.

Back when they were acting stupid, it was only because they didn’t know the situation.
